As I write this, 2013 is coming to a close.  It ws a busy and exciting year for us with the addition of Albert in March.  There is a long story to how Albert came to us.  We set about looking for an available stud dog for Simone's very last breeding.  As luck would have it, we found Albert, fell in love with him and, instead of simply breeding to him, brought him home.  From the start, Albert showed us that he had all the right stuff, earning 19 show and working titles in just seven months!  Albert has been a terrific fit for our family and we'd like to thank Leslie Fried and Debra Bach for allowing him to join us here in Canada. 

Unfortunately, we lost Envy in 2013 at fifteen years of age.  Despite the number of years she lived, it still felt like a chapter of my life closing.  Envy was the last of the dogs that came with me to Canada over 13 years ago.  Everyone else was either born here or came to us while Mike and I were together.  Aiden, Simone and Nova are still going strong at seven and eight years of age, Hope is now five years old.  There is signifcance to her birthday, as it also reminds us that Mike has been cancer free for five years!  Itchy and her daughter, Georgia, are doing very well also; Georgia finished her AKC Championship and Grand Championship in 2013 and both had BOSS wins.  We also kept two new puppies... Sola and Penny Lane.  We have high hopes for each of these little girls.

2013 again brought a wide variety of exciting wins, particularly at the specialties.  Both our own pups and those related has some wonderful showings.  We are delighted to share the following:

    Colonial Rottweiler Club    - Tank Best in Specialty
    Northstar Rottweiler Club  - Rumor Award of Merit
    Rottweiler Club of Alaska  - Kenya Winners Bitch
    Medallion Rottweiler Club - Shooter WD/BOW, Georgia AOM, Patton AOM and Stud Dog,
                                                    Itchy Brood Bitch, Derby Grand Prize Futurity
    RCC Ontario Regional        - Itchy BOSS, Albert AOM, Shooter WD/Best in Sweepstakes
    RCC National Specialty      - Georgia Best of Opposite Sex, Penny Lane Best Puppy
     

And not only was it a good year for the specialty dogs, but for the working dogs as well, with Albert, Grant, Dante, Pixie, Toro, Jerome, Tie, Sunny and Ember all winning High in Trials in their venues this year!  Even Mr. Slick (Tammy's Corgi) got in on the HIT action!

We had two litters in 2013.  First came Sola, a singleton puppy from the Yngo/Itchy breeding.  Sola is turning out to be everything that we were hoping for from this pairing.  She is bold, quick to learn and very eager to work.  Next, we paired Simone with Albert.  Leave it to Simone to give us another large litter.  These nine pups helped us to welcome five new owners to the Esmond Family.  Welcome Sue Waite, Mona Boord, Tom and Gloria Arns, Stan and Debbie Sherman and Mark Elvington.  We wish you all the success in the world with your new pups! 

There were three 2013 breedings involving Simone's daughters.  Renee, owned by Judy Coates, produced three pups; Clover, owned by Perri Yinger produced six pups out of Gable and Chatty, owned by Lisa Byrd and Valerie McGraw produced seven pups.  We'd like to welcome all of their new owners to our extended family. 

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

As always, my favorite thing to do on December 31st is to put together our year end list of accomplishments.  Congratulations to each and every dog and owner on this list.  Your hard work is a testament to your love of your dogs.  We are so proud of every one of these dogs and owners!

Yngo's pups continued to do well, even though most are veterans now.  Congratulations to the following dogs and owners for earning 2013 titles: Lois Eid & Usher MACH 5, UD;  Beth Jackson & Blitz CD; Becky Giddings and Breve NAP, NJP, HTADIII-d; Gina DeAlmeida & Toro CS, CI; Pauline Karalia & Jetta MACH, T2B; Karen Carroll & Jerome T2B, MXS; Michele Hermann & Jada HTADII and Janet Bender & Joy RAE2.

For the seventh year in a row, Yngo won the ARC Prico Award for having produced the greatest number of working titleholders in a given year.  His daughter, Jetta, and grandaughter, Takoda, tied for the corresponding Taxi award.  Both Emma and Jetta qualified as ARC Gold Dams, Simone as an ARC Silver Dam and Takoda as a Bronze dam in 2013.  Gable became eligible for his ARC Gold Sire award (from only two litters!) and Nevar became eligible as an ARC Bronze Sire. 

Receiving ARC Top Ten awards in 2013 were Wizard, Sunny, Jill, Tie, Tatum, Herja, Jetta, Usher, Rebel and SimoneFlare qualified for her ARC Versatility Excellent Award and Albert qualified for the ARC Versatility Award.

Of note, Wizard finished off the year by attending the Eukanuba Agility Championship.  He thrilled us by winning the four cumulative runs, besting 145 other dogs in his height division.  Congratulations to Elaine Swancer and Wizard!

Lastly, 2013 also saw eight pups pass the Temperament Test, two pass the Herding Instinct test, six earn their CGC (or CGN) certificate and two more pass the Therapy Dog International Test.

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

In terms of breedings, we are sorry to report that we don't believe that the V/Albert litter has caught.  We'll know for certain in another week however.  We have one 2014 litter of our own planned, a repeat of Sola.   We do hope to get a few more just like her.  We also have two co-breedings planned - one between Pebbles & Vado, to be co-bred with Barb Young of Ontario; the other between Maggie & Surfer, to be co-bred with Kathy Lovan of Indiana.  We are excited to see what these litters produce! 

Mike continues to move forward in his judging career and is currently licensed for all of the Working, Hound and Toy groups, as well as being on permit for half of the Non-Sporting group.  Ann is working on her permit for the back half of the Working group.  We will be showing very little in 2014.  We hope to attend the ARC National, and will begin showing Sola and Penny Lane this summer.  Albert will also be working on his advanced titles, so this will keep us busy for the remainder of 2014. 

As always, we hope that the new year brings success and happiness to each and every one of you, as well as health and longevity to your four legged friends!

                                                                            Ann & Mike
